Question | Answer |
What is outboard gear? | Equipment NOT built-in to the board that is designed to CONTROL or MODIFY our signal. |
Name the 5 domains of outboard gear. | Frequency Spatial Tonal Time Dynamics |
Name the 3 devices used to change frequency. | Tape Speed or Pitch Changes (VSO), Digital Pitch Changers (Pitch Shifters, Harmonizers), and Autocorrectors |
To what domain do Autopanners and 3D Processors belong? | Spatial |
What do we call the place where all equipment's inputs are connected? | The Patch Bay |
To what domain does delay belong? | Time |
How do we generally measure delay time? | In milliseconds and seconds |
What parameter of delay adds an increased number of repeats? | Feedback or Regeneration |
Name 3 type of delay devices. | Tape Analog Digital |
Name 2 effects which are achieved by using very short, modulated delays. | Flange and Chorus |
What type of delay uses the distance between the record and repro heads to achieve delay? | Tape delay |
Name 4 means of achieving reverb. | Acoustic Chamber or Echo Chamber, Plate, Spring, and Digital |
What type of effect uses a room dedicated to producing reverb? | Echo Chamber |
What type of reverb uses a piece of sheet metal? | Plate |
What type of reverb uses complex formulas called algorithms? | Digital |
Which type of reverb uses a metal spring? | Spring |
What do we call the amount of time it takes reverb to drop by 60 dB? | RT60, Reverb Time, or Reverb Delay |
What reverb parameter delays the reverb? | Pre-delay |
To what domiain does reverb belong? | Time |
Name the 3 parameters of EQ. | Boost/Cut Frequency Bandwidth or "Q" |
What parameter isn't found on a semi- or quasi-parametric EQ? | Bandwidth or "Q" (it's preset by the manufacturer) |
What do we call a PASSIVE tone control? | a Filter |
What do we call an ACTIVE tone control? | an EQ |
To what domain do EQs and filters belong? | Tonal |
What type of EQ has all 3 parameters? | Parametric EQ |
What type of filter removes lows? | Hi-pass (Low Cut) |
What type of filter removes highs? | Lo-pass (High Cut) |
What type of EQ boosts or cuts a range of frequencies around a center frequency? | Peaking EQ |
What type of EQ affects all frquencies above or below the selected frequency equally? | a Shelving EQ |
What parameter of EQ determines the width of the frequency range being boosted or cut? | Bandwidth or "Q" |
What domain do compressors, limiters, expanders and gates belong to? | the Dynamic domain |
Which devices decrease dynamic range? | Compressors and Limiters |
What parameter is the level where dynamic devices are activated? | Threshold |
What parameter of a dynamic device determines how much its output changes compared to its input? | Ratio |
What is the difference between compression and limiting? | Limiting is a ratio of 10:1 or more |
What is a key or side chain input? | It allows a signal other than the one being contolled to activate a gate or compressor. |
Except for patch bays with outboard gear, is the top row usually an in or an out? | an Out {the most important connections are always at the top} |
What are the 4 types of patches? | Normalled Half-Normalled Non-Normalled (Open) Parallel |
Which type of patch mults or splits output connections but breaks inputs when patched? | Half-normalled |
Which type of patch breaks contacts on output AND input when patched? | Normalled |
Which type of patch has no internal connection between top and bottom connectors (must be patched)? | Non-normalled |
